The top five things to do in Miami
1. Visit the South Beach
Your visit to Miami cannot be complete without a taste of the city's famous beach life. In addition to having some of the world's best beaches, Miami has the perfect weather for beach activities and watersports. Although there are many beaches in the city, we would recommend South Beach, thanks to its historic Art Deco architecture, watersports and fine Oceanside dining.
2. Vizcaya Museum and Gardens
You should not leave Miami without visiting the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, especially if you are keen on global history and heritage. The Gardens boast statues, pools, sculptures, hedgerows, mazes and fountains while preserving the natural habitat. The site has also transformed into an educational centre for history, architecture, native plants and art. It also serves as a venue for gala events, weddings and receptions.
3. Fairchild Botanic Gardens
The Fairchild Botanic Gardens has two distinct parts: the Uplands and the Lowlands. The latter consists of the Caribbean plant life and the coastal habitat, including the Keys and the endangered Pine Rockland habitat. The Uplands consists of Madagascar forests, rain forests, a tropical fruit pavilion, a butterfly garden, the Baily Palm Glade, an edible garden and the Victoria water lily pool. Other significant features on-site include 11 lakes, the Gate House Museum and an amphitheatre for important public events.
4. Coral Gables
The Coral Gables is an excellent place for tourists and business people. The Biltmore Hotel is the core feature on the site. Designed in the Mediterranean style, the hotel attracts prominent and affluent people from all over the globe. The best features available include the golf course, terraces, tennis court, patios and a large swimming pool. It also offers wedding venues and gala events.
5. The Everglades and air boating
The Everglades is a must-visit attraction if you love wildlife and exotic plants. This unique ecosystem sits on about 11000 square miles of land divided into nine distinct habitats. After going around the park, you can unwind by participating in thrilling activities, such as air boating. The airboat rides are also a perfect way to view the park's unique habitats.

When is the best time to go on holiday in Miami?
The ideal time to visit Miami lies between March and May. Besides the gorgeous weather during this period, visitors can experience the Miami Music Week and Ultra Music Festival in late March. Late April and early May are the best times to avoid the crowds associated with spring breakers. Since the Atlantic hurricane sets in between June and August and extends into November, you should expect the least crowds during these months. The prices are also lowest before tourism begins to revive from September and November.
